I suffered a complete rupture of my right triceps on October 12th, and of course waited a week before I schedule an appointment with Dr. Burt. He quickly ordered a scan of the injured arm to make sure that I didn't have any blood clots that could lead to stroke or death, due to the massive amount of blood and swelling that occurred. Luckily, no blood clots, so it was off for an MRI the next day, which Dr. Burts staff arranged for me. I went back the day after having the MRI and Dr. Burt reviewed the extent of the damage to my arm and quickly scheduled me for surgery to reattach the triceps muscle. Side note -- I had an ACL reconstruction 15 years ago, performed by another doctor, which ended up having some post op issues that caused me extremely horrible pain and delayed my recovery time. I mention this because I was so worried that my triceps reconstruction surgery would potentially have the same issues. But, Dr. Burt assured me that the surgery would be fine and that I was in good hands. My surgery was on October 31 2018, and it went as good as it could have. My pain post op pain was bad, but that's to be expected. There was excellent follow up by Dr. Burt and his staff, who arranged for my therapy once the I was able to start rehabbing my triceps. Fast forward to Jan 21 2019, just less than 3 months post op, and I'm feeling great! The triceps feels great and I've regained a lot of my strength and full range of motion in the arm. I was able to begin light weight lifting a few weeks ago, and as of today Jan 22nd, I am lifting 4 days a week, and although I still need more time for a full recovery. I can say that I did not have a single complication and that was due to Dr. Burt's excellent care and the surgery he performed to reconstruct my triceps. His staff is great, and Dr. Burt has excellent beside manners and I would not hesitate to recommend him as your surgeon if you need one to repair similar type injury.
Thank you Dr. Burt!
